One of my new mini audio mixer discoveries is this little guy: "Loop Mixer" from a company called Maker Hart. It has all 3.5mm ins and outs, so it's great for mixing audio from iPads, iPhones, computers, etc. I plug it into the PA system at conferences to mix audio from multiple sources during presentations. It's about $69. With a TRS to TRRS adaptor on the output cable, you can use it to feed audio into your smart phone or tablet for Facebook live or Periscope!

#Affiliatelink Part of my mission in teaching you to do great livestreams and recorded smartphone videos is finding the gear that helps you look and sound your best! The Saramonic SmartRig allows you to connect professional microphones that use a standard 3-pin XLR plug directly into your smart phone or tablet! Amazing! View it on my LivestreamTechStore.com page; link is in my bio. Yes, it makes a great Christmas gift to yourself. (Or drop some big time hints to your family!!)

Cut the cord! This inexpensive wireless mic system will work with your smartphone for live streaming or video recording. At a cost of less than $70, you can’t have super high expectations. (A professional system costs $500 or more). But if you stay in a relatively close range to your smart phone - line of sight - it’s going to work pretty well for you! See it in the wireless mic section of my Livestream Tech Store. There’s a link in my bio.

The Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 is an outstanding way of connecting professional condenser microphones directly to your computer via USB. When you connect digitally, your audio quality will be much better than connecting through a cheap analog audio mixer. And it’s a good testament to the quality of the product that veteran podcaster Amy Porterfield uses Focusrite in her podcasting studio. Couple this with a Tascam TM-80 or Heil PR-40 mic, and you’ll be sounding sweet for all your listeners! And don’t forget, even if you don’t have a podcast yet, you can use Facebook Live Audio to educate and entertain your followers!
